LO2 - Planning for a talk & music radio show


Title
The Glorious Space Chefs

Intended radio station/broadcaster
Our intended radio station is Sheffield Live! They are a community radio station which caters to the undeserved listeners of Sheffield. Due to the variety of unique shows which Sheffield Live! broadcast, 'The Glorious Space Chefs' would fit into their schedule of radio programmes.
 

Target audience
The radio show is targeted at 16 to 35 year olds, as there will be electronic music which appeals to the younger age range, and music from the science fiction movies, TV shows and video games which can range up to the age of 35. The cooking aspect of the show will appeal to adults because they are much more likely to want to learn to cook more adventurous food using the space chefs' recipes. The audience will be part of the DC1C2 demographic because they are listening to community radio and want to find out how to cook new and interesting recipes.

Content plan
At the beginning of the show we will have a jingle which will familiarise the listeners with who the Glorious Space Chefs are, what the show is about, if there's any special guests, they will be mentioned as well.  We will then have an introduction to the show which reminds frequent listeners and informs new ones what happened on the previous show. After that there will be a structure to the show which will allow listeners to become familiar with the shows content but stay entertained. The content and will be in five minute intervals and advertisements will be in 1 minute intervals in order to keep the listeners interested in the show.


Production
 
Pre-production
We are going to collect audio effects which can be used when editing the radio show. We will also be researching what we are allowed to say on the radio in order to ensure that we do not offend the audience.

Production

We will be recording the audio which will be part of the radio show, it will include the hosts who are talking to each other and help the audience to understand that the show is Sci-Fi and will entertain audiences who will enjoy listening to show's content which is about "glorious space chefs."

Post-Production

During post-production we will be editing the audio which our hosts have produced for the show. We will be creating a jingle and adverts which will make the show recognisable and allow pauses in the show in order to make it more exiting.

GLORIOUS SPACE CHEFS! SUPER DUPER SPACE TUNES. ALSO COOKIN' TOO! ONLY ON SHEFIELD LIVE, YEAH! 



ANDREW
Welcome to The Glorious Space Chefs, the finest show in cooking and spacey sounding music.

JOE
An unfilled niche!

ANDREW

I'm Andrew

JAMES

I'm James

JOE

And I'm Joe
ANDREW
Let's kick this off with a classic space song, one of the most memorable. Why from John Williams himself, the Star Wars theme from A New Hope.


JAMES
A bit generic. so your idea of spacey music instantly goes to Star Wars right guys, right?

JOE

Yeah let's just have superhero radio and then play the Superman theme all the time on a loop

ANDREW

Whatever, whatever let's just play the song.

(Star Wars theme plays)


JAMES

Alright so now we have the type of people who'd listen to the Star Wars theme in the car, let's get onto our recipe

JOE

 Today we will be demonstrating a delicious pork casserole with apples, walnuts and celery.

ANDREW

Of course. Introducing special guest, Ken, to read out the ingredients!

JAMES

(Mutters) I hate that Ken.

KEN

(Background music in recipe)
 For this dish you will need two tablespoons of sunflower oil, 500 grams of pork fillet, cut into cubes and trimmed of fat. 900 millilitres of boiling chicken stock, 100 grams of broken walnuts, 300 grams of long grain rice, one onion roughly chopped, 8 celery sticks cut across into 5 centimeter lengths with leaves reserved and chopped, 450 millilitres of apple juice or cider, one bay leaf, 3 crisp dessert apples and salt and pepper.

JOE

If you missed out on any of these ingredients, have no fear as at thegloriousspacechefs.blogspot.co.uk, we will post the list of ingredients needed. Again that's thegloriousspacechefs.blogspot.co.uk.

ANDREW

And if you forget any ingredients then you'll be in a muddle (boing sound effect)

JAMES

Now that the ingredients are stated, while you get them together, we have a very classic space related David Bowie song to play.

ANDREW

That's right, up next, David Bowie: Starman.

JOE

Not Space Oddity?

ANDREW

At this point it's lost its touch, Joe. It's lost its touch.

KEN

Can I go now?

(David Bowie: Starman plays)


ANDREW

Starman's pretty underrated.

JAMES

It's not really, it's David Bowie, everybody loves him.

JOE

I prefer Space Oddity

ANDREW

Joe just proved the point I was going to make, Space Oddity and Life on Mars overshadow it

JOE

Speaking of overshadowing, now time for the method.

ANDREW

 How does that make sense?

JOE

I don't know, but you know what makes less sense? A random ad!

JAMES

(Audible sigh)

AD NARRATOR

Hungry? (Ding sound effect) Thirsty? (Ding sound effect) Too lazy to cook? (Ding sound effect) Too lazy to travel? (Ding sound effect) Well I hear your cries, as Prime Pizza can sort that out. With plenty of different meals and pizzas and delicious beverages, call us at the Prime Pizza at 0114 333445673, it's also on JustEat.co.uk, and if you want to travel then it's at Firvale, just the corner from the Northern General Hospital.

(Advertisement end)


JAMES

Okay now for the method.

ANDREW

Pre heat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius or Gas Mark 3.

JAMES

Then heat the oil in a flameproof casserole.

JOE

After that, add the pork and fry until it's browned on all sides.

ANDREW

You're going to want to stir frequently, for about 5 minutes. Until then we're going a little bit Daft, with Daft Punk: Digital Love.

(Daft Punk Digital Love plays)


JAMES

That was Daft Punk Digital Love. From the 2001 Discovery album.

JOE

So now you're going to want to add the celery and onions and fry for about 10 minutes.

ANDREW

Or, until softened!

JAMES

Now while that fries, it's time for a good Aerosmith song. I don't wanna miss a thing.

ANDREW

Oh no that one.

(Aerosmith I don't wanna miss a thing plays)


ANDREW

And if you don't wanna miss a thing either, at thegloriousspacechefs.blogspot.com, as soon as we say the steps of our method, we'll put them there too.

JOE

Now the pork, celery and onions should still be frying, so how about we give our show, a touch.

ANDREW

A touch?

JOE

Not just a touch.

ANDREW

You mean... the touch?

JOE

The touch..... by Stan Bush.

JAMES

Best known from the animated Transformers movie in the 1980s.

(Stan Bush the Touch plays)


ANDREW

That was Stan Bush the Touch. A beautiful song. Anyway the pork, celery and onion should be fine now, so it's time to add the apple juice or cider if you prefer, and the bay leaf.

JAMES

Season with some good old salt and pepper to taste.

ANDREW

If only Stan Bush made a song called The Taste.

JOE

It'd make transformers seem less epic though.

ANDREW

That's true.


Legal and Ethical
The show will only be able to play material which is either uncopyrighted or that we have gained permission to use. We will contact the owner of the copyrighted music in order to gain their permission to play the song on our radio show, though the radio station has a PRS license so this will never be an issue. We would need to ensure that, since we are on the radio, the presenters do not say anything which could be considered offensive. We will make sure that nothing offensive is on the radio show, in order to ensure that we followed the guidelines of Ofcom and that nobody will find the radio show offensive. The show will be broadcast at 9AM which means younger people, such as children, will be listening to the radio show which means that we will need to control the language used on the show so that they aren't offended. When producing the radio show we need to make sure that we follow the rules of Ofcom, so that we do not offend anyone when talking on the radio show. We must make sure that we do not use any "offensive language" on our radio show because it is available to younger audiences. We will also need to make sure that we have paid for a PRS license to make sure that we are allowed to play music on the radio show. We will have to make sure that we have permission to use all of he material that we use as part of the content of our radio show as required by section 319(4) of the act 3 because content is part of the ownership of a particular person or company that created it.

The Production

We have followed production processes in order to make sure that the radio show would be usable and that it that we created it to a high technical standard. We used the sound booth in order to raise the quality of the recordings and make sure that there wasn't much of an echo when the presenters were talking. In terms of legal and ethical we have made sure that we haven't sued any offensive material and that we have permission for any music we use. We have made the radio show entertaining by making sure that we have a jingle and interesting background music, as well as editing the audio to make it sound more professional and remove the hiss from the audio.

Proposed scheduling time
The show is scheduled to be broadcast on Thursdays at 9AM. The show will be hammocked between 'Sheffield Uprising' and 'Africa Beat' because it will allow people to listen to the show when they are on their way to work and then attempt to follow the recipe when they get home. The show is early in the morning and will be uploaded as a podcast available for download at any time.​
